Bullying.
I believe that cyber bullying is much worse than bullying that takes place at school or home. The reason for this is because a lot of people who get bullied from a website like facebook or myspace, can not really say no to the demands of the bully. They can only accept it because the bully knows where and who their friends and family are. They could use everything that the victim said or done against them causing even their own classmates to turn around and bully them as well. So when this happens, there is really no escape or safe place/time. They get bullied at school for misunderstandments and they get bullied whenever they are on the internet. They will not even be able to feel safe in their own room - their own home. If I witnessed someone getting bullied, I think I would try to help them indirectly. Meaning, I am not going to go right up to them and say "oh, i'm going to call the cops on the guy who's harassing you". I need to catch him in the act so I will contact the police when he is in the act. I believe people should stand up for themselves so I will not stand up. I am not saying that I will stand by and do nothing. If they are in so much of a troubles place, I will with out a doubt, stand up for them. People can speak, communicate, and possibly do anything in this world. So why is standing up for themselves not one of them?
